The Division of Pediatric Pulmonology provides comprehensive consultation, diagnostic and management services for children with a wide array of pulmonary diseases.
Our pulmonary specialists provide inpatient and outpatient pulmonary consultation for the management of a wide range of pediatric pulmonary diseases, including asthma, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), interstitial lung disease, pulmonary vascular disease, and restrictive lung disease requiring mechanical ventilation.
The Division also provides consultation for children with pediatric sleep problems.
The Pediatric Pulmonary Function Laboratory (PFT Lab) provides comprehensive diagnostic testing including spirometry, lung volumes, diffusion capacity, sweat testing, exercise challenge and bronchoscopy.
Medical students interested in pediatrics are encouraged to take our fourth-year elective course to learn more about the practice of outpatient pediatric pulmonary medicine.
Deep breaths are like little love notes to your body. Our team is dedicated to helping children take deep breaths.

Since 1984, The Ronald McDonald House of Augusta has been keeping families close and patients near the specialized care they need. With a 23-bedroom house, which is located steps away from the Children’s Hospital of Georgia, they are able to serve over 1,000 families a year. We are incredibly thankful for the support they provide for our patients and their families.
It is important for you to make every effort to arrive for your child's scheduled appointments and be on time. If you need to cancel/reschedule, you can call our scheduling line at 706.721.2390. If your child is seen in our Cystic Fibrosis Center, you must contact the office to make scheduling changes at 706.721.2635. If you are going to be late, we ask that you contact us promptly so we may notify the providers and determine if you should reschedule.
If you are late for an appointment, arrive on a day other than the date you're scheduled for, or arrive at the wrong time of day, please know that you may not be seen. Because we are a specialty service we do not keep "sick" appointment openings.
